What is an Adjournment Debate?

There is a 30-minute Adjournment Debate at the end of each day's sitting of the House of Commons. They provide an opportunity for an individual backbench MP to raise an issue and receive a response from the relevant Minister. Unlike many other debates, these take place without a question which the House of Commons must then make a decision on.[1]

The Minister for Care and Mental Health, Gillian Keegan MP, subsequently provided the Government’s response.
